What It Takes

What It Takes

Do you have event coming where you need to look your absolute best: a wedding, black tie event, party, fundraiser, or a special first date? A sunkissed golden glow is the ultimate accessory, especially here in the Caribbean, where bare arms and legs are a part of almost every ensemble. But with skin cancers on the rise, and 70+ sun block an absolute requirement for any Grand Cayman resident or visitor, what’s a gal to do to get that sexy, perfect tan? Finally, our island has the perfect answer: What it Takes! Mobile Spray Tanning.

What It Takes! Mobile Spray Tanning is the premiere Custom Airbrush Spray Tanning Service now being offered right here in Cayman. Get the perfect tan without leaving your home, and without harmful UV rays or sun exposure. What It Takes comes directly to your premises, and an expert tanning professional will hand spray and customize each and every tan to your skin tone in just mere minutes.

What It takes has the only oil-free, alcohol-free and fragrance-free sunless tanning solution to give you the beautiful, natural, “just off the beach” color.

Sessions take about 20-30 minutes.

The spray tan will last up to 10 days with proper care.

Cost: $55/per session.

I just got spray tanned again this weekend and WOW, what an instant way to look better! It’s a subtle way to look refreshed, younger, more polished, and “put-together”. I got many compliments at at the event I attended over the weekend and at the office today. Most people couldn’t figure out what I had done; they just thought I looked nice; which is great! The spray tan process at home is excellent: no mess, no odor, no clean up; you feel like a movie star. Nadine shows up with everything, you just relax. A few minutes later you’re looking “red carpet ready”! Keep this mind for the next time you need a boost; it sure made me feel special, for about the same amount you would spend on a fancy facial. I’ve used What It Takes! Mobile Spray Tanning for events in the past and it’s the best way to look refreshed, even up my skin tone, and look younger, all for just $55.00! See my picture below to illustrate how natural and subtle the What It Takes! Mobile Spray Tanning results are. I’ve experimented with other spray tans in the US and sometimes the tans came out looking a little “Jersey Shore” (too orange or too dark). You can count on What It Takes for perfect results, every time!

Weather in the Cayman Islands is fabulous for holiday travelers, but the heat and humidity can be tough on those of us who live and work here. Nailing down a smooth and polished look for your hair can be especially challenging! Even gals with just a hint of curl will find themselves with annoying frizz, here in the tropics. Loading up on tons of heavy products or beating on your poor locks with hot irons or blow dryers won’t work in the long run, either. There is a solution that will give you runway-perfect hair, every day, and with mimimal fuss: Global Keratin Treatment. It’s a salon treatment, available only at The Salon, on West Bay Road. Ask for Joe Cowin. Joe’s a world-class expert in color, cut, highlights, and fashion colors, and she also specializes in the keratin smoothing treatment. She’s been doing hair for 21 years, with recent specialized training in Europe.

The keratin treatment takes a few hours, but it’s SO worth it. It lasts about 3-4 months.  You’ll be left with the most amazing, shiny, smooth, gorgeous hair you can imagine. (Check out the “before and after” pics of Joe’s recent Keratin client!) The only danger with the Global Keratin Treatment is that once you’ve had it, you’ll be so hooked, you’ll never want to be without it again. The cost for the treatment starts at CI $275.00, depending on the length and thickness of your hair, and this includes Global Keratin shampoo and conditioner to take home.  It’s totally worth it, when you factor in the money saved on styling products, and the time you’ll save on blow drying. It’s also so much better for your hair, since it cuts down on how much heat your hair is exposed to each day.

Even if you don’t get the Global Keratin, schedule an appointment with Joe for the most amazing color or cut you can possibly imagine. Getting married soon? She’s got the hottest wedding looks for you and your wedding party.

Joe is responsible for some of the most glamorous hairstyles in Cayman. Join the elite club of “Joe’s Girls”, and start looking as fabulous as you possibly can. Joe: 345-943-4247

Anti-Aging at Beyond Basics

Posted by admin
Beyond Basics

Beyond Basics

Anti-Aging (Deep Sigh!) If you are over 30 years of age, chances are you spend time slathering on sunscreen and anti-aging products to keep looking young. Don’t forget two important areas where the skin is often ignored: the hands, and the decolletage, or chest area. The skin on your chest and hands tends to be thinner, and vulnerable to aging, since these areas may not be as moisturized. Perhaps they are overlooked in your sun protection regime. These two crucial areas may give away the secret of your age.

Take steps today to revitalize the skin on your chest and hands with a Beyond Basics regimen specially customized to reveal a more radiant all-over glow in these highly visible areas. Check out these unique beauty treatments, designed to rejuvinate your skin:

Skin Tightening/Wrinkle Reduction Comfortably achieve a more youthful, tightened and toned appearance. The laser stimulates collagen production that produces a firming effect in slack skin. Safe for all skin tones.

Chemical Peels A broad range of peels are available to address concerns such as dark pigment, age spots and fine lines

Laser Skin Rejuvination Laser service precisely targets skin imperfections caused by sun, age spots, & uneven skin tone

Anti-Aging Hand Treatment Exfoliating and deep hydrating treatment combined with the most luxurious hand massage you can imagine. Repachage Hydro-moisture mask and a re-texturizing/peeling cream will leave your hands looking young and vital.

LED Lights Light Therapy promotes collagen production, smoothes skin texture, improves skin’s firmness, restores skin’s natural cellular activity, reduces the appearance of aging and damaged skin cells (fine lines, wrinkles, and dark spots on the skin)

Let the skincare pros at Beyond Basic Medical Day customize an anti-aging program for you, to restore your youthful glow. Call 345-945-2737 for a complimentary consult.

(A tan will make you look thinner and also highlight muscles-ask any bodybuilder). Who even needs a reason? Getting an airbrush tan will make you feel beautiful for a week to ten days!

There is even a Special Introductory Package to get you started:

6 Full body tanning sessions & 3 products free (Medical grade Exfoliation wash + bronzer for face & body) + 50% off a CelluLift Lotion
